Geriatric Pharmaceutical Chemist

I study Chemistry and Farmacy for more than one reason, but the principal reason is help people to recover of they illnes, specifically in older adults (Grandparents).
All my life i dreamed with be a Geriatrician because i love the Biology and how the body works, but when i had around 15 years old, i undertood that the biology is nothing without the Chemistry and i thought in study a career relayed with this two subject how the principals in the profession.
After enter the career i knew the good salary that the Pharmaceutical Chemist win and is approximately 1.000.000 of Chilean pesos, for other part the Labor field is very wide. You can job in ten or nine diferents areas, but the one that calls me most my attention is job in hospital such as Clinical Pharmaceutical Chemist, but even more i would to be Geriatric Pharmaceutical Chemist in a hospital. I think that this specialty is the most important for the Country, because every day in Chile exist more older adult and there are only 4 persons in the country with this type of title.
I hope in a future help a large majority of older adults to get better theirs conditions of life and who knows maybe found a cure of some ill or help for the creation of a new medicament .

September 18

For the special month we are in, today i writte about my family and how we celebrated the 18 of September

First i need to tell you that i have 3 sisters and 1 brother. Their names are Jonathan(31 years), Karla(30 years), Belen(26 years) and Ignacia (8years). The three first are my brothers for part of mum (i´m the youngest) and the last is the part of dad.
My parents are separated since 2005 and all the special dates i stay with one of them and the next day i go with the other.
Every 17 of September the family for part of mum gathers in my house and we celebrated the Birthday of my two sisters (their birthdays are the 17 and 24 of September).We hear music (not cueca), eat roast, drink "Terremoto" and joking about everything. I love that types of family meetings, because i dont live with all my brothers for that reason i dont see them very often and neither to my nephews, is for this that this date is simply the best.

At the next day my father is go to look for me and we travel to my grandpa´s house for celebrated the "fiestas patrias" with the other part of my family.
Now is my turn again to explain that my dad has 9 brothers and each have couple, thats means that they have childrens (more that 1 )and finally in my grandparents´house  we are approximately 35 persons.
Is completely crazy the hour to lunch and after all my cousins played in the playground. On this day can pass a lot of things and this is what do special these holidays for me.

Chemistry and Pharmacy

well...well...we could say that everything starts when I was about 6 years old and I had the great idea of being " Doctor of grandparents"( at that time i didn`t know that the correct term is Geriatrics). Since I was little I loved biology and everything related to the human body. Over the years I met incredible teachers who made me fall in love even more with Biology, but at the same time with new subjects such as Chemistry and Physics. Thanks to them it was that my career options were increasing, thinking maybe about being a Pharmaceutical Chemistry or Commercial Engineer (only in case of not being able to enter in Medicine). In summary the score wasn’t enough and here I am.

In this short time that i had class in the University i'm fallen in love with the career Chemistry and Farmacy. Is incredible how we can work in some many areas such as do medicines (in an industry), cosmetics, in forensic, hospitals, laboratory....
My profession is so important for all people, because the knowledge of the different medicines help the persons with their ills, pains and problems. Also to get better the quality of life for their.
All the time we need creating new medicines and treatment for illnesses, at low prices and for the benefit of all. I think we can safe lifes and better others with the support of Doctors and the commitment of the pacient.

I hope in the future to be able to work in a Hospital, helping people to recover from their illnesses. And who knows if I end up in the hospital over the years as Geriatric Pharmaceutical Chemistry
